It's really expensive to subsidize these people!!!
I lived next to a 40mph road with a hill that was just on the other side of a red light. I lost count of all the times I heard a rear-end collision from people coming over the hill, unable to stop in time. This was negligent road design, but still.
As a gig worker, I religiously sit on my phone even as I drive and I don't ever encounter problems. That's the craziest part to me. I can't imagine how people who are fully paying attention manage to fuck it up. There was a 3 car accident on i55 today and it led to a 30 minute backup. So unnecessary
I can see down into peoples cars. While driving most people aren’t playing with them. But at traffic lights the phone comes right out. That’s why people sit at green lights. They are looking at their phone.
100% accurate and so is @hannibal-chau.bsky.social
They're watching brain rot content at green lights completely removed from the fact that they're in a 10,000 ball of steel that hurtles down the highway at 60mph.

It isn't.
Example: On a divided highway with 2 lanes on each side, she drives in the left lane. Period.
Knows it’s wrong, doesn’t care.
People have to pass her in the right lane.
I’d be happy if they just stayed on their side of the road.

It's stupidity at it's finest.
